<LI><B>Properties:</B> Multiline, FreeSpaces, Align, !Nesting</LI>
<LI><B>Contains:</B> Macros, Beautifiers, Raw, Tagged, Links, Image,
 Comment</LI>
<LI><B>Syntax:</B>
<UL>
<LI>A leading pipe &quot;|&quot; identifies a table row</LI>
<LI>A leading double pipe &quot;||&quot; identifies a table title row</LI>
<LI>Leading spaces before first pipe identifies table centered align</LI>
<LI>The fields are separated by the &quot; | &quot; string (space pipe space)</LI>
<LI>A final pipe &quot;|&quot; at the first table row sets visible borders</LI>
<LI>A final pipe &quot;|&quot; at the other table rows are ignored (just cosmetic)</LI>
<LI>Closing a cell with more than one pipe &quot;|&quot; identifies column span:
 &quot;||&quot; for 2 columns, &quot;|||&quot; for 3 and so on</LI>
<LI>Natural spaces inside each cell identifies its alignment</LI>
<LI>Example: <CODE>| table | row | with | five | columns |</CODE></LI>
</UL>
</LI>
<LI><B>Details:</B>
<UL>
<LI>All the table row data must be on a single line of the source file,
 no line breaks inside</LI>
<LI>Targets with column-oriented align (like sgml and LaTeX), uses the
 first table row align as the default for the other rows</LI>
<LI>Any non-table line closes the opened table, except comment lines</LI>
<LI>The cell count is flexible, each table row can have a different
 number of cells</LI>
<LI>Currently there's no way to specify row span</LI>
<LI>If the target does not have table support, the table lines are
 considered a Verbatim Area</LI>
